A link has a lower portion coupled to the base and an upper portion coupled to the pad, wherein the upper portion is pivotable with the pad about the flex region.

Abstract: Methods and systems for generating backups are disclosed. To generate a backup, a snapshot may be generated. A snapshot may be a point in time representation of data, in contrast to live data which may be updated over time. To reduce the impact of snapshot generation, a method, system, and device for generating and maintaining a snapshot that utilizes fewer writes is disclosed. To reduce the writes, the snapshots may be generated by preferentially referring to already stored copies of data for the snapshot rather than storing an additional copy of data for the snapshot. The snapshots may be maintained by storing copies of data for the snapshot only when live data diverges from the snapshot.

Abstract: A cavity mold comprises two or more sub-molds; and one or more gasket disposed between two adjacent sub-molds; wherein the gasket seals heating and cooling mediums when the cavity mold is assembled; wherein each of the two or more sub-molds comprises an outer casing; an inner casing on which a molded item is formed, wherein the cavity mold is assembled, a cavity is formed in the space between the outer casing and the inner casing; at least one heating/cooling mediums input pipe that is fluidly coupled with heating and cooling medium sources and the cavity, wherein heating and cooling mediums are pumped or compressed via the at least one heating/cooling mediums input pipe into the cavity, thereby the heating and cooling mediums pass through the cavity of the cavity mold; and at least one heating/cooling mediums return pipe that is fluidly coupled with the heating and cooling medium sources and the cavity, wherein the heating and cooling mediums are pumped via the at least one heating/cooling mediums return pip

Abstract: Disclosed are tricyclic heterocyclic compounds having kinase inhibitory activity, pharmaceutical compositions and kits comprising the compounds, and use of the compounds in the treatment of or in medicaments for the treatment of various diseases and conditions. In particular, disclosed are tricyclic heterocyclic compounds of the formula (I) having CSF-1R (c-FMS kinase) inhibitory activity and their use in the treatment of various diseases and conditions, such as those mediated by CSF-1R, including proliferative or neoplastic diseases and conditions, including cancers, and bone, inflammatory, and autoimmune diseases and conditions.

Abstract: A tile spacing tool is disclosed herein that spans a gap between tile rows where the gap is sized to receive a decorative insert or the like. The spacing tool spans the gap and transfers the weight of the upper tile rows across the gap to the lower tile rows, which are supported by a floor or ledge. As a result, the entire wall can be built including the decorative insert without waiting for the bottom tile rows to dry to support the weight of the tile rows above the decorative insert.

Abstract: A first computer is selected for testing. Information sent from a second computer system to the first computer is intercepted. The information is modified to be noncompliant with a communication protocol, thereby producing noncompliant information. A determination is made whether the first computer device has failed to provide a particular response to receipt of the noncompliant information, and an operation is performed based at least in part on the determination.

Abstract: The present invention describes a method (600, 600a) of forming bitumen bags (605) for packaging bitumen products into blocks or slabs. Each block/slab of bitumen (200,200a,200b,200c) is encapsulated in the bitumen bag, which is composed of a bitumen compound (160). The bitumen compound (160) is made up of about 10-30% by weight of natural bitumen and about 5-25% by weight of a synthetic rubber polymer and copolymers. The bitumen compound (160) is melted with the bitumen content and is fully miscible with the molten bitumen, leaving no residue but enhances the physical properties of the resultant bitumen mixture.

Abstract: This invention provides for a solid, particulate insecticidal formulation in the form of a granule, a bait or a tablet for mechanical incorporation into or onto soil comprising a volatile insecticidal active ingredient that is microencapsulated and combined with a bulking agent and a disintegrating agent. The solid particulate formulation is characterized in that the volatile insecticide is selected from insecticidal active ingredients having: (a) a vapour pressure at 25° C. in the range from about 1 mPa to about 1,000 mPa; and (b) a water solubility at 25° C. less than about 100 mg/Litre.

Abstract: An apparatus and methods for generating an identity document obtain unique machine data related to an identity document generation system. The apparatus and methods obtain personalization data related to an intended holder of the identity document. The apparatus and methods generate a unique machine and personalization data object that includes values of the unique machine data and the personalization data. The apparatus and methods digitally sign the unique machine and personalization data object. The apparatus and methods incorporate the signed unique machine and personalization data object into the identity document.

Abstract: A femoral neck prosthesis (10) with a cross-section defined by a perimeter comprising: first and second arcuate portions (12, 14) disposed opposite one another; and first and second substantially straight portions (16, 18) disposed opposite one another and in between the first and second arcuate portions, wherein the first and second straight portions are non-parallel with respect to one another.

Abstract: A portable handheld wireless breath alcohol monitoring device (RBAM) utilizes facial recognition from an enrollment image or gallery of images accumulated over time, and automatic retesting if an initial test is positive for alcohol or of an initial facial match is negative. A location fix is captured with each breath test taken by an offender. After each breath test, the breath alcohol content (BrAC), date and time of the breath test, facial image data, and location fix are uploaded through a built-in cellular phone module in the RBAM to a monitoring station. The monitoring station evaluates each breath test and determines if immediate notification to a supervising agency is needed. If so, an email, text message, or page is sent to the supervising agency. RBAM enables the monitoring of lower-risk offenders or offenders who have earned the privilege of a less intrusive alcohol testing and monitoring program.

Abstract: A portable moisture trap for use with a vacuum pump includes: a housing; a cooling chamber positioned at least partially within the housing including a first inlet port and a second outlet port; a lid that sealably attaches to a top portion of the cooling chamber to seal the cooling chamber; a heat sink residing under the cooling chamber; a thermoelectric device having an upper cooling side and a lower heat generating side residing between the cooling chamber and the heat sink; a fan oriented to blow air upwardly toward the heat sink; and a baffle extending downwardly in the cooling chamber from a location proximate the lid to a location proximate an inner bottom surface of the cooling chamber, with the baffle configured to define a physical barrier to urge air received through the first port to flow down toward the inner bottom surface of the cooling chamber before exiting through the second port, to thereby remove moisture from air traveling through the cooling chamber in response to a vacuum pump in fluid
